It will be the Gamecocks' (42-18) 11th trip to the Super
Regionals in the last 14 years, which ranks second in the nation behind Florida
State during that span. The win is South Carolina's 27th-straight postseason
win at home, including a 16-0 mark at Carolina Stadium.

South Carolina tallied nine hits in the contest,
including a 2-for-4 effort from senior LB Dantzler and sophomore Tanner
English. Dantzler also drove in a game-high two runs.

Senior right-hander Colby Holmes (5-2) worked 1 1/3
scoreless innings to earn the win, surrendering two hits and striking out one
batter. The win is Holmes' first since April 7 at Tennessee. Senior left-hander
Tyler Webb earned his 17th save of the season after allowing one run and two
hits and fanning three to close out the final 1 1/3 innings.

Flames starting hurler Ashton Perritt (3-2) was tagged
with the loss after allowing four runs and six hits, walking four and striking
out two in four innings on the mound.

The Gamecocks got their offense going early as they
pushed across a run in the bottom of the first inning to take a 1-0 lead.
Senior Chase Vergason and sophomore Joey Pankake drew back-to-back one-out
walks to get things started. Dantzler followed with a single through the right
side to drive home Vergason to give Carolina the lead.

Carolina pushed its lead to 4-0 with a three-run outburst
in the third. English smashed a ground-rule double to left center to lead off
the inning. Three batters later, Pankake drove English home with a single to
left field. Dantzler followed with a double to the gap in right center to score
Pankake and later scored a run on a single to right field by sophomore Kyle
Martin.

Liberty cut the Gamecocks' lead in half in the fourth.
After Aanderud delivered a one-out single and Sizemore followed with a double to
left, Paxton roped a single through the right side to drive in Aanderud.
Sizemore then scored on a sacrifice fly by freshman shortstop Dalton Britt to
make it a 4-2 ballgame.

The Gamecocks continued their hot hitting in the home
half of the fifth as they tacked on two more runs. Sophomore catcher Grayson
Greiner ripped a single to right field to lead things off. Following a
sacrifice bunt by Martin that moved Greiner to second, junior Graham Saiko
singled up the middle to drive Greiner home. Two batters later, English
perfectly laid down a bunt single toward first base to score Saiko, giving
Carolina a 6-2 cushion.

The Flames made one last charge at a comeback, scoring a
run in the eighth on a double by pinch hitter Danny Grauer and a run in the
ninth on a RBI groundout by Wimmer. However, with runners on the corners and
two outs in the ninth, Webb put an end to the comeback bid by striking out
Sizemore to secure the win.

The Gamecocks will play the winner of tonight's Chapel
Hill Regional final between North Carolina and Florida Atlantic in the Super
Regionals. If North Carolina wins, the Tar Heels will host South Carolina. With
a Florida Atlantic win, the Gamecocks would host the Super Regional later this
week at Carolina Stadium. The NCAA will announce dates, times, sites and
television coverage for the Super Regionals late Monday night.
